Job Description

Dayton 24/7 (WKEF) is seeking a dynamic, high-impact News Anchor to lead our newscasts and help shape the future of local journalism in Ohio. This is not a “read-the-news” position—this is a leadership role inside a forward-thinking newsroom where anchors are central to editorial decision-making, storytelling innovation, and audience connection.

At WKEF, our anchors don’t just present the news—they lead coverage, mentor teams, and drive content across platforms

What You’ll Do

As an Anchor, you will be a central leader in our newsroom and a key driver of daily content. You will:

  • Anchor newscasts with confidence, clarity, and credibility
  • Actively participate in daily editorial meetings, helping shape rundowns and coverage strategy
  • Produce and contribute original content across broadcast, digital, and social platforms
  • Write in a clear, conversational, audience-focused style
  • Deliver compelling live coverage in breaking news and major event situations
  • Build strong connections with viewers through consistent social media engagement
  • Collaborate closely with producers, reporters, and digital teams to elevate storytelling
  • Mentor and support MMJs and producers as part of a team-first newsroom culture
  • Represent the station in the community through events, initiatives, and public engagement
